It is fun to think that most of this is true, but it kind of fell apart near the end. I enjoyed reading it on vacation.

An engaging read, from a young woman who writes honestly and with humor about her experiences as a "spook."

I enjoyed how indepth the author went about the CIA. I'm surprised they allowed her to write this book truthfully.

A fabulous read! I was hooked from the beginning. She really was a CIA spy and it's nothing like I ever thought. I loved the training she recieves. It's all so unreal. Seriously great. I expected her to go shoe shopping at any moment.

Entertaining, easy read, and a bit scary as well. I was a cynic before I read it, and am even more so now.

This book is GREAT! Very funny and quite interesting. I am amazed the CIA actually let her publish this book with all the inside information related to their recruitment and training techniques.

Her tales from training are engaging and scary, but we hear a bit less detail when she actually goes to work, and most of that is even creepier. Not as completely terrifying as Robert Baer's See No Evil, but I enjoyed the read. As PJ ORourke says, "Likable, readable, and funny... She's a former spy (and former romantic) who takes the romance out of spying and brings some much-needed intelligence to the Central Intelligence Agency."

"Not only humorous and charming but also a searing indictment of the CIA." S
The author was a former spy for the CIA from 1998 - 2003, the book was very interesting.
